Absolute high/low limit temperature (& humidity) alarms and
upper deviation limit temperature alarm
The absolute high/low limit alarms are completely independent of the
target temperature (& humidity). They do not change when target
temperature (or humidity) has been changed.
On the other hand, the upper deviation limit alarm is relative to the
target temperature.
If the target temperature is changed, the deviation alarm temperature
changes in proportion.

Safety Device Setting Example
High limit temperature
In this example, the target temperature is 60°C and the maximum
allowed temperature of the specimens is 80°C. Safety devices are set as
follows.
